President Trump nominated Murphy to the seat on theUnited States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit being vacated by JudgeAlice M.

Notable rulings

[edit]

On December 3, 2021, inGun Owners of America, Inc. v. Garland, 19 F.4th 980 (6th Cir. 2021), an evenly divided Sixth Circuit affirmed the denial of a preliminary injunction against a rule issued by theATF declaring bump-stock devices to be illegal machine guns under federal law. Murphy authored a dissenting opinion joined by seven other members of the court that would have enjoined the ATF's new rule, explaining that the "policy debate over whether to ban bump stocks" belongs "with the legislative branch accountable to the people" rather than an administrative agency or the judiciary.[15] InGarland v. Cargill, 602 U.S. 406 (2024), the U.S. Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that bump-stock devices are not machine guns under existing federal law.
